Made this table topper for a friend.  She just remodeled their bathroom and wanted a new topper for the bathroom cabinet.  She chose the fabric and design.  I did an overall quilting pattern, edge to edge, spinning daisies.

Made the granddaughters jumpsuits or overalls.  McCall's pattern M7459.  Nine year old wanted long pants and 7 year old wanted shorts with doggie fabric.  Also made them face masks to match.  They were a hit!!

These applique quilts are so fun.  This is Backyard Birds by Piece O' Cake Designs.  Looks wonky but I think it just dried that way.

Cream and Sugar pattern by it's sew emma patterns.
Took about 3 months to complete.  Used a bundle of dark blues I bought at the Puyallup Quilt show before the shutdown.  Each square was unique and complicated,  a very good challenge for me.  
Finally figured out how to quilt feathers so many feathers on this quilt.  I'm wondering how long before cat puke will appear on the quilt.

I collected fat quarters of red, white and black for several years.  Watched a Missouri Star Quilt Company youtube on how to make a Hunter's Star quilt.  Bought the pattern from them.  I really love black in a quilt.  This was fun to make..........actually every quilt is fun to make.
